Subject: [netatalk-admins] Applying patches

This is definitely not an appropriate question for this board but I don't
know where else to turn. I attempted to patch a18 to a18.1 & then a18.2. I
cannot seem to patch a18 probably due to my lack of understanding
regarding patch syntax.
asun's readme suggests patching using the following syntax:
zcat <patch> | patch -d <directory> -p1
I put in the following command:
zcat /opt/src/a18-a18.1.diff.gz | patch -d
/opt/src/netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.0a18/ -p1
I fails with error: I can't seem to find a patch in there. There is no
question that the patch is in /opt/src. I expect, there is something very
wrong in the way I am issuing the patch command. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
